Positioned in the peaceful rural landscape of Lake Ohia, this 5,544 sqm section offers an inviting opportunity to create your own retreat in the Far North. Predominantly flat, fully fenced, and surrounded by open countryside, it’s a property that immediately feels calm, spacious, and full of possibility.
For the current owners, this land has been a place where family gathered, children played freely, and memories were made under the shade of the big tree near the house site. The freshwater stream along the boundary has been a favourite spot for exploring, cooling off, and feeding the resident eels — a reminder of the simple pleasures that come with living close to nature.
Originally discovered by a family member who was exploring the region by motorbike, the property was chosen for its serenity, fertile soil, and proximity to the beaches and coastal playgrounds of Doubtless Bay. That same sense of escape, while still being within easy reach of town, is what makes this property so appealing today.
